Question Posted Saturday November 12 2005, 2:37 pm
I am a sophmore in highschool and I have been starting to talk to my old elementary school friend/ kinda of middle school boyfriend. His name is Tommie and i have known him forever. He now talks to be online alot and clearly is sort of interested but he is just so stupid! I mean he is really smart in school but is common sense towards girls is completly terrible. Me and my friends always ask him to come hangout or whatever and hes like yeaaa, then oh i cant go out.. i dont know. i am starting to like him and if i talk to him online later what should i say? good conversation starters/ how can i kind of tell him how i feel?

- How is his weekend going?
- What's his favourite sport?
- Best memory of elementary/middle school
- What he's doing for New Year
- What he wants for Christmas
How to tell him:
- Remind him of the things you used to do/talk about when you were going out and how much you liked it and missed it.

First things first, does he ever hang out with you, or does he always blow you off? If he always does, then he is clearly not interested. Sometimes, he may have things come up, but other times he may just not want to so he will come up with an excuse. Even though you have known eachother for a long time, do you know eachother that well? If so, and you are still good friends then we'd say there is a good chance of something more. and for the internet talk, we know it can be hard to say things, just be random and funny. guys love that. ask him what his favorite color is. stuff like that, and plus, if your friends, it shouldn't make a difference if you think you sound stupid. DO NOT SAY I LOVE YOU TO HIM! wait for him to say it first or he will run away from that...intimidation. but you can tell him that you care and that you are happy to be friends. maybe hint around-be mysterious and try hard to get...it works and they dig it!

Ask him to hang out to get to know him better. You can also ask him who he likes. If he asks you back, you can like put a wink or something. If he doesn't get the hint then yea, he is pretty stupid lol. But you can just flat out tell him that you like him, what have you got to lose?
